The Lake of Saint-Cassien is a large lake surrounded by 4 villages: Callian, les Adrets-de-l’Estérel, Montauroux, Tanneron.

The Argens, the main river in the Var region, flows for 114km from west to east through the middle of the department and through varied countryside. The Argens eventually plunges into the sea at Fréjus.
